Reflect on all that you learned this semester about developing your critical thinking skills and think about your own biases. One of the biggest obstacles to critical thinking is the willingness to truly listen to others because we already know the right conclusion. We tend to believe that others disagree with us because they are biased, yet we are not! Ask yourself what obstacles to critical thinking you have noticed in your life and share these with your peers. Suggest strategies you might use to counter these tendencies and what you might do to overcome your own biases. Please cite from the course readings as evidence informing your response.
